Congrats!
Did your dealer call when it came into the UK? I've not heard from mine yet despite going status 40 on Monday. I've got history with my dealer not being at all pro-active stemming back to when I ordered so I'm just wondering whether I need to chase them or not. I guess they'll call me sooner or later but it would be nice if they called and give me an ETA pick up date.

My car is now at the port. Any rough idea on how long it actually takes? Audi told me 14 days max but usually its 10. Whats other peoples experience with this?

A long long long 13 days for me, without a doubt the worst bit. Especially when I've seen people on here get on a boat and land within a week of leaving the factory!
Yes I agree. I can't believe how laid back they are really. Kind of takes a bit of the shine off the excitement. Sent an email and left a message with them. I tell you what once it arrives and they want paying they'll move!Rob - seems to me all Dealerships are like this - even ordering was a bit onerous. Twice I had to get them to correct the order, each time requiring a trip down to Dealership to re-sign the new order - and yes I missed the 2nd mistake - but literally had to pop down during a lunch-break.
Let's be honest - once they've got our orders - we're old news ...... Which when you're making/spending likely the second largest purchase in your life - does seem a bit cr@p tbh
I'm a T minus 22 days before I go collect the car - as others have said - time will seem to drag very slowly !!
Ok getting desperate now, my current car I'm using has broken down and beyond economical repair and I'm stuck getting to work. Mine came out the factory 23/04 . Least waiting for Xmas u have a date!!. I'm close to cancelling and buying used out of desperation. I've emailed the dealer today explaining my situation and asking if I can have a date of when I can expect handoverStill waiting to come to the UK on mine yet. Mines been at docks about 3-4 days.

Holiday from work, park yourself at the dealership, tent and camping stove, that will get them moving quicker Mike. x
Weather is good has been warm and sunny. Hopefully be good for when you visit. xIronically, I'm actually on holiday for two weeks after today... I'd planned on taking the new car to Scotland. But I can't go now... without it.. as knowing my luck it will arrive the day after I get to Scotland. So I'll camp outside audi for the first week. Them travel up next week instead

My dealership called to arrange collecting my car BUT I was told I need to come in one day for a 'pre handover' to do the finance bit, then come in a day or so after to actually collect it... is this correct?? Why do I have to make 2 trips, they are 40 miles away and I have no other car now. BMW was all done on the same day! Anyone else had to do this?
What a royal pain in the butt. Do you I can push for the same day?You should be able to do it all in the same day! Im sure this will go back to my other post about them resubmitting finance applications!
